Add Action to Update Price & Stock of Product Variations with Zapier

This makes it easy to have an external “source of truth”. I use Airtable. It’s much easier to manage prices and stock quantity from there then directly within WooCommerce. Adding the ability to update prices and stock quantity of product variations would be a major time saver for my workflow.

    Hi all,

    WooCommerce Zapier now has full support for production variations, including Create Product, Update Product and Find Product.

    https://om4.io/blog/woocommerce-zapier-2-6-0-full-product-variation-support/

    We have also added a new “Update Product Price” action, which can be combined with the “Update Product Stock Quantity” action we announced last month.

    Please see our updated documentation for full details on the new Product action functionality: https://docs.om4.io/woocommerce-zapier/actions-searches/#products

    And please update to the latest WooCommerce Zapier plugin version in order to get access to these new features.

    Thanks,

    James

    Hi everyone,
    I’m pleased to announce that we have just added a new “Update Product Stock Quantity” action. This new action allows you to set the stock quantity for any existing product (including product variations).

    It is the first action that supports variations.

    Please see https://om4.io/blog/woocommerce-zapier-2-5-0-new-update-product-stock-quantity-action/ for full details.

    We hear you loud and clear regarding full variation support, and we are actively working on full product variation support.

    We hope you find this new action useful, and we’ll let you know once full create/update support for variations is available for you all to use.

    Thanks,

    James

    The best I have come up with is to add variations as separate products and search by the line item in the order rather than using the product trigger. You can then search by line item title rather than product title. Trigger on order -> loop through line items -> add line item to wherever.

    100% agree that only being able to manage simple products is useless. A massive part of WooCommerce core is variations. This is another example of minimum viable product in software. You also can’t even simply search for variations I’ve found.

  5. rsnitmanager says:

    Have also just discovered there is no way to update variations, after having bought this plugin. Which makes it pointless. Why have a plugin that handles only simple products when standard WooCommerce has both simple and variation products. As with other comments here, our store has a significant number of variations. Using Zapier to update simple products seems to work fine, but at the end of the day it appears I’ve been wasting my time (and money).

    Just got final confirmation from OM4 that this is not a supported feature yet as of 8/31/22. I would echo Robert and Dominique in that we also have almost 50% of our product base are variations and it’s important for us to be able to maintain product status info (pricing, stocking) from external sources for all product types.

    We were a very early adopter right after Zapier added SF Order Lines functionality, so fingers crossed they get this on the development roadmap. It seems a little odd because it seems like all the functionality is in place based on the log files and testing we did to try implement this.

  7. Dominique Sandwith says:

    Does seem kind of pointless not to be able to update variations considering this is a major feature of Woocommerce – is there no update on when this will be a possibility?

  8. Robert Howe says:

    Unfortunately I bought this just to update regular price of products from ragic. Simple products had been great, but realistically not having the ability to do variations makes it pretty useless for what I need. More than half our 1500 products are variations
